“Helena was fantastic. She did a great job watching my dog. Very affectionate and loving, neat and tidy around the house, great communicator, gave him his medication. Just a fantastic experience with Helena. Highly recommend.”

“Alexa stayed in our home with our 3 month old Puppy and was amazing! Gave her lots of love and took great care of her while we were away for 4 nights. She sent us daily pictures of her and even taught her how to sit during this time! Thank you for taking such great care of her! She left our home as if she was never here and was very respectful and professional.”

“It's been a minute since I used Rover (eight or nine years goes by quick). I had a great Rover sitter out West many years ago when there was no whites on his face, butt, and paws. He was just a black pup then. He walked, ran, and leapt pain-free. 'Mack', like his owner, has just simply gotten older, and is described with whatever adjectives come with the word, 'old' since. Enter Angela. I reached out to her a couple weeks before I was leaving for a week, and she responded promptly. She came to my house a few days later, over the weekend, to meet him. Mack is vocal, overly so at times, and is protective of me, in spite of my attempts to dissuade that behavior, constantly, for 13 years. Get near me, he barks. Just the way it is. Angela gave him a treat here and there while being unwavered and kind to him. He was nipping her heels as I showed her around my place... ...still unwavered and kind. I knew she was the right person, and she took the job which was staying at my house with him for a week. She walked the old man every day, took excellent care of my house (absolutely not asked of her), easily navigated a farmer's dog diet, and fired happy/action pictures of my dog to me every evening. He was definitely loved. He showed his belly in return. He doesn't do that for just anyone. I could tell he was kinda bummed it was me in charge again when I returned. I wanna keep Angela to myself, but it's only fair to recommend her. She's responsible, beyond trustworthy, and truly great with doggies! Highly recommended!”

“Jackie is the best! She stayed at our house with our babies for 8 nights while we were overseas, and Brenda and Dylan just loved her. She sent tons of photos and was in touch every day so we knew what they were up to. And she even baked them homemade dog biscuits! Cannot recommend her highly enough!!”

“Emily was amazing! She sent tons of updates and I came home to an exhausted pup! She even did laundry after an accident (puppy problems, not Emily’s fault!) I can’t wait to work with Emily again!”

“Had a wonderful meet-and-greet with Caitlin and Karen. Lovely people, and very knowledgeable about dogs. Looking forward to many future bookings!”

“Skyla was great! She confirmed our plans and any instructions beforehand, and kept us updated with pictures and notes. She stayed at our house and everything was left in good order - including a very happy dog:)”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all kinds—big, small, energetic, and everything in between! From Huskies to Pitbulls, I’m comfortable with every breed and always provide loving, respectful care. I work full-time during the week but am available for evening visits after 5:30 PM. Most Saturdays I’m available after 1:00 PM, and I’m fully available on Sundays. I’m very reliable and love keeping pet parents updated so you always feel comfortable and confident. While I don’t offer pet care in my own home, I’m happy to care for your pet(s) in the comfort of your home where they feel most safe and relaxed. I follow all care instructions closely and can accommodate feeding schedules, medications, litter box care, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m also available for overnight stays if needed.

“Caroline was awesome! She was available last-minute and her actual availability matched her Rover availability, which other sitters did not. She stayed in our home with our 2 pups for 4 nights and kept our pups and our home in great shape! Would definitely recommend her!!”

“Zuzana was amazing! She walked Roosevelt every day and sent us cute photos and videos. I was afraid Roosevelt wouldn't want to come home. We will use Zuzana again for sure. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors dogs as well as friends and family. They’ve been all sizes from big to small and all different breeds. I’ve also had a family dog and cat my whole life and I’ve helped to care for them ever since I was little. I’m currently working to find a new job after doing seasonal work, so I have ample time currently. Once I find a job I will likely be off weekends with the most free time then. I live with my parents and they have a fully fenced in yard, perfect for roaming and running around to play if your pet came to stay.

“What could go wrong went wrong with my dog while we were out of town. Dana kept me updated on everything and got him to his vet, then brought him to the hospital. She didn’t leave my dog’s side until the hospital admitted him. He was stabilized and I now have him home! Thank you, Dana for picking up on his symptoms and getting him the care he needed!”

“Zach was so great with our dog Ducky and 2 cats. Zach was so helpful and allowed for us to enjoy our vacation knowing the wonderful care that he was providing our pets. We highly recommend Zach for any animal care needs.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. My family has always had multiple dogs in our home and a house isn’t a home without a dog. For years I have cared for friends and family dogs while they were either at work or vacation. Now that I am retired I have a lot more time to give helping others who need support to care for their dog. I am available all hours of the day and night. I can pick up dogs or they can be brought to my home. I am semi retired and this allows me lots of flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard that backs up to conservation land that I use to exercise my own dogs. If allowed by owner, walks on the beach at low tide is a favorite activity for our dogs. During the summers I walk the many trails this area has to offer, many with ponds the dogs love to swim in.

About: We recently moved to Harwich from Bedford, MA in Oct 2024. We love taking walks and taking car rides with our Goldens to try new trails or beaches that are pet friendly and meet other dogs and Pet Owners My Wife and I are recently retired now living in Harwich and are avid walkers. We love taking walks on the beach, Thompsons Field and neighborhoods. Our Golden has the common area free to roam and we crate her at night. We have a runner off back deck that we use while outside with her. Never let her loose unless we are with her.

“Marie took care of our new puppy and older dog while we were gone for a day trip. Marie is a terrific communicator, sent tons of pics and updates, and took wonderful care of our dogs. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

“Sadie did a wonderful job of looking after Otis this past weekend - lots of great walks with new friends and hanging out at home with Sadie and Tut! Would highly recommend!”

About: I have extensive experience working with dogs of all sizes. Growing up, my family had large dogs (90+ pounds) for almost all of my life. I have watched and pet-sat for dogs of all sizes in the past few years for neighbors and friends. I’ve recently moved back to the Massachusetts area after a travel-heavy job for the past few years, so no fur babies of my own yet! I look forward to re-exploring some of the wonderful walking trails the Cape offers with your furry friends! I’m currently working as a server part-time, so have plenty of time to play with, walk, and feed your dogs/cats. I am available for boarding or pet-sitting in your home most weeks, and for walks nearly every evening, plus morning and afternoon shifts every Tuesday and Wednesday. I have a large backyard and walking trails within a 10-minute walk from my house, perfect for leashed adventures! I do not have any pets in the house full-time, but may have my parent’s well-trained and friendly rescue in the house on occasional weekends.

“Sharon was wonderful with watching and bringing our dog to our wedding. She clearly really cares about dogs and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. We felt very comfortable with leaving him in her capable hands. We will certainly have our dog stay with Sharon again when we are back on the cape! We can’t recommend her more! Thank you Sharon!!”
